How fast is your 496 Mag HO boat?
All the talk of fastest hull etc got me wondering. Throw enough HP and $$ at a cinderblock and you can make it fast. I think the true measure of how fast a hull is would be to compare speeds with equal power. I know there are lots of variables beside just the engines, but I am just curious about the best speeds seen with black power.
I'll start with the low side of things. My 38' resin bucket has had a best of 69.2gps with 1/2 tanks and light on gear, 2-3'chop, maybe 65 degrees out. |
79mph with 2/3rd tanks, 2 people, full gear, 10 gallons of water in salt with mild chop.
Twin step 35 Lightning with 1.50 XR's spinning 28 Bravo One's stock. |
82 mph 2ft chop, half tank 2 people
01 Sunsation 32 Dominator bblades 28 bravo 1's |
The 21 Suthpen Did Over 80mph With A Single 496ho
